Hack the Flyer: Registration Open

HACK THE FLYER!Do you have the creative wit and competitive grit to hack an iconic Radio Flyer red wagon to become a force to be reckoned with on the race track?

Grab your tools, duct tape (or welder!) and a team of your favourite designers, tinkerers, inventors, and speedaholics to hack your dream race-wagon. Win a coveted place in the Beakerhead Competition Hall of Fame!
